Alcohol does clean a penny because it has 91% that takes away germs and any other bacteria on the penny. It takes about 2 or 3 days to clean the penny but it cleans it for sure I am positive about that I tried it myself. But it only took at least 1 or 2 hours to clean it with alcohol. Now Pepsi I'm not sure how long but I'm pretty sure it's about 2 or 3 days you should try it yourself it's so much fun and you have a good science fair project a Pepsi and alcohol you're going to have to make up a question yourself.

Yes BUTTTTT ....NEVER, EVER try to clean valuable coins to make them "look better". Dumping a modern penny in Coke to see what happens is a good chemistry experiment, but don't try it with an Indian penny from your grandfather's coin collection because it'll go from being worth possibly several dollars as a collectible, down to only a cent or two as a damaged coin.
